Former UK Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg on liberal, pro-European politics

0:00

Stephen Sackur speaks to Nick Clegg, former UK Deputy Prime
Minister. Elected Politicians tend to lose their grip on power
and prestige with brutal speed. For Five years Nick Clegg was
Britain's Deputy Prime minister, the Liberal Democrat who entered
a coalition with the conservatives and gave his party its first
real taste of power in generations. And then came the 2015
general election. His party was annihilated. He took much of the
blame. His brand of liberal, pro-European politics now looks like
badly damaged goods. Is there anyone to blame but himself?
